Review Packard Bell EasyNote ME69BMP Netbook

[Redaktion]

Bay Trail in a notebook. Packard Bell's 10-inch notebook is already available for just under 300 Euros (~$410). For that sum the buyer will receive Windows 8, a touchscreen and MS Office Home & Student 2013. The device runs on a new Bay Trail Celeron. Is the little notebook worth the money? Our review reveals the answer.

Thanks; I bought the device and realized it even supported multi-touch; really cool; I didn't expect that (i.e. it was nowhere advertised to feature multi-touch).

I would like to see the videos you were playing on this netbook, cuz the ones i tried were not watchable. Even the store advertisement it played was all squares and getting stuck...this nb is no good for movie watchers!!!!! BEWARE

Runs HD films just fine with BIOS update and an installl of windows 7 64bit. The hatch on the bottom DOES come off actually... just remove the keyboard by using a fine point on the retainer tabs then remove the 5 screws marked "door" and push the tab marked "door" and the entire bottom "fake" hatch pops off to reveal full access to the fan, sodimm, HDD and wifi card.

There is only one memory slot but i swapped the 2gb supplied sodimm out with a 4GB ( max supported ) low voltage part and it works fine. Much snappier and i also fitted an SSD. It boots up into win7 almost instantly and can actually play World of warcraft ( just about ).

Can somebody tell me how to take out the keyboard in order to replace the HDD? Thnks
